Calloo Callay! The car is in the shop right now (9:22 AM PDT, Aug 5). The re-valved Bilstiens are going in.

On the advice of some stranger <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> I left instructions for these parameters:

camber -1 deg
caster +5 deg
toe-in 1/16"

Just now I was perusing these groups, and I found some other advice to someone else, saying, if you do any highway driving, start with -.5 deg camber. I also found some other notes that say,

camber -.5 deg
caster +4.1 deg
toe-in 1/16"

I do a little highway driving. In fact I am on a freeway for a few miles every day. I can't rule out the possibility of going on a moderately long trip sometime on short notice. Should I call the guy up and change the instructions?

Following up my own post: I meant to say "toe-out", not "toe-in".
